Genshin Impact: Immortal Cave

As the actual ruler of Liyue today, Ningguang was not born into a wealthy and prominent family.

It can even be said that her origin is more humble than that of many ordinary people.

Yet, this woman rose to the top of the country without any background.

Relying on her shrewd mind and tenacious determination.

Therefore, Ningguang never thinks it is shameful to use wisdom, strategies, and means to solve problems.

On the contrary, she believes that relying on force, fists, and killing to solve problems is the most stupid behavior.

"...Forget it, sit down if you want. This is not my home anyway."

Under the influence of Ningguang's will, Shenhe could only sigh and pick up the osmanthus wine and put it into his mouth.

Although the immortal was still harsh in her words, her attitude towards Ningguang seemed to have changed.

Otherwise, Shenhe would probably just walk away and would never sit at the same table with Ningguang.

"Hehe, I'm welcome then."

After successfully sitting down, Ningguang breathed a sigh of relief and winked at Li Mochen who remained silent beside her.

Since Ningguang and Shenhe started talking, Li Mochen hasn't spoken a word because he can't speak.

Otherwise, with Shen He's delicate personality, if Li Mochen spoke for other women in front of her, the result would only be worse.

At this moment, silence is helping, while talking nonsense is making things worse. Li Mochen understands this principle.

"Lady Ningguang...what would you like to eat?"

At this time, Xiangling, who had been observing the atmosphere for a long time, also walked over tremblingly.

A long time ago, Xiangling had always been somewhat afraid of Ningguang.

How to say it, because everyone says that Lady Ningguang knows everything.

Such a description made it easy for the simple Xiangling to imagine her as something very scary.

"Does the store have meat and flour?"

But Ningguang did not order any food. Instead, she smiled and asked a strange question.

"Beast meat and flour? Of course, we have pork, beef, mutton, and venison. The flour is also top quality."

"Is that so? Then let me borrow the kitchen. I want to make some food to entertain my two friends."

Smiling, Ningguang stood up and walked towards the stove.

Lady Ningguang...want to cook for yourself?

Not only Xiangling, but also Shenhe and Li Mochen were surprised to hear her words.

Want to know who Ningguang is? She is the most dazzling of the seven stars of Liyue, and a big shot who governs the entire Liyue.

But now she has to cook by herself, which is really rare.

"Where's the white dough? And the rolling pin."

"Ah! Master Ningguang, let me help you prepare the ingredients."

"Okay, help me cook the half-fat and half-lean pork and tofu, and I'll knead the dough first."

Under the stunned gaze of Li Mochen and Shenhe, Ningguang actually started working as a cook in Wanmin Hall.

She took off the long-sleeved gloves on her hands and skillfully started mixing, kneading the dough and making pancakes.

There are many people living in Liyue, but not many have seen Ningguang cooking.

Although many people have lost their memory, there are actually quite a few people who have eaten the dishes she cooked.

Soon, the only dish Ningguang knew how to cook and had been making for many years - "Qiankun Mora Meat" was served on the table.

"Mora Meat" is a very famous delicacy among the common people in Liyue.

The crispy pancake is filled with juicy meat filling, which looks like the "roujiamo" that Li Mochen is familiar with.

Although this dish is praised as a legendary delicacy that would make people reluctant to pick it up even if Mora is placed in front of them.

But in fact, it is just an extremely common civilian delicacy.

It is hard to imagine that Ningguang, who may be the richest woman in the world, would make such common food.

"You two, please use it."

Ningguang placed two portions of "Qiankun Mora Meat" in front of Shenhe and Li Mochen and made a gesture of invitation.

"Huh, I thought it was some kind of delicacy, but it's just a mere Mora... huh?"

Originally, the divine crane picked up the "Qiankun Mora Meat" with some disdain and took a bite.

But the moment she bit it, her eyes suddenly widened.

Good...delicious!

The crust is soft and glutinous, and the meat is fat and lean.

The honey-like gravy oozes out as you chew it, it is much more delicious than ordinary "Mora meat"!

"Oh, Sister Ningguang, you are quite skilled. I didn't expect you could cook."

After tasting Ningguang's specialty, Li Mochen smiled and gave her a thumbs up.

In his opinion, Ningguang is a person who pursues efficiency.

She would never do something herself if it could be bought with money, because the time spent doing it was enough for her to make more money.

What's more, Ningguang's requirements for food are not high, and it is hard to imagine that she would go into the kitchen just to satisfy her appetite.

But after hearing what Li Mochen said, Ningguang smiled and shook her head.

"Although this may seem like food to you, to me, it is the first pot of gold I have ever earned in my life."

"First pot of gold? Sister Ningguang, did you start your business by selling Mora meat?"

From the first day he met Ningguang, Li Mochen had gotten used to her identity as a wealthy woman and knew nothing about her true background.

He originally thought that Ningguang should be the daughter of a wealthy family, but that was not the case.

"My family was poor when I was young, so I started to do small business when I was seven years old, even though I just picked up some star snails by the Yaoguang Beach and sold them."

Although time has passed, perhaps someone still remembers it.

There was once a scene where a little girl walked barefoot from Yaoguang Beach to South Pier, selling goods along the way.

"After I had a little savings, I left the seaside and came to Liyue Harbor, where I worked as a handyman in a restaurant and learned from masters."

It was that experience of stealing skills that gave Ningguang the opportunity to change her destiny.

Soon, she started selling this "Qiankun Mora Meat" on the streets. Her business was booming and customers came in an endless stream.

At the age of fourteen, Ningguang finally earned her first pot of gold in her life and left the streets.

Subsequently, this woman rose step by step to the top with her flexible business acumen, starting from scratch and becoming as wealthy as a country today.

Of course, the reason why the Mora meat sold by Ningguang is profitable is not only because it is cheap and good quality, but there is another reason.

That is, the meat in the pie is mostly replaced by tofu and fat, so the cost is extremely low...

"I see. Sister Ningguang also worked in a restaurant. The chefs there must be very good."

"The chef's daughter is also very good at cooking. I hope you guys enjoyed the meal."

Huh? Li Mochen, Shenhe, and Xiangling were all stunned when they heard Ningguang's playful answer.
